It's decent, but there are better ones for around $70.

Correct me if im wrong, but dont you already have a 500W Ultra-X? (According to you're sig). And how much does that cost at Radioshack?

M0ddingMan1a · 07-03-2006, 11:09 PM

as i said, its for an upcomming computer. thats priced at 79.99 and im payin only 9.99 after rebates.

Even if you dont use it, you'd be stupid not to buy it for $10. Sell it on eBay and make money.

Well, even though I'm on a budget... I assume $15 for an $80 PSU is something even I can't pass up. I will have one.
